"If only life could remain as it was when we first met, Rong Ruo, are you talking about us? This wealth and splendor is so dazzling, it's not my fault.

If I hadn't wanted to live and fight for my dignity, I wouldn't have climbed onto the bed. Look, I climbed up.

Who now dares to say in front of me that I am a palace maid born into a bondservant family and that I am of low status and not worthy of you?

You are such a loser. How could you have been depressed for so many years because of Lu's death?"

As she drank glass after glass of wine, Concubine De became even more confused.

At this moment, she didn't care what she should say or what she shouldn't say, and directly exposed her little thoughts.

"When the late emperor ascended the throne, the Empress Dowager was able to marry Dorgon, so today I can do the same. Just give me a few more years and we can be together.

Do you know how much I look forward to that day? How could you die? How dare you die?

Defei was originally expressing her sorrow, but she became more and more irritable and unable to control her mouth the more she spoke.

The maidservant behind her was pounding her heart. What was going on? Did the queen's head get stuck in the door? How dare she say anything?

The problem is that she dares to speak but she dares not listen. After hearing these secrets, how can she survive?

"My Lady, it's getting late. You can't drink any more. Walls have ears. Please stop talking."

However, Concubine De was feeling uncomfortable at the moment. She had been holding these words in for so many years and had just found a reason to vent. Why shouldn't she be allowed to say it?

"How dare you! Get out of here!"

The nanny had no choice but to go out and check if there was anyone around who was eavesdropping or peeping. If these words were really spread today, she would definitely be the first to suffer.

Because she didn't persuade Concubine De, and let her get drunk and talk nonsense!

Fortunately, after looking around outside, she didn't find anyone, otherwise she would have wanted to die to atone for her sins.

Without the nanny's persuasion, Concubine De continued to talk about the story of her deep love with Nalan Mingzhu.

Nalan Mansion.

Mingzhu sat in the yard in a very depressed and sad state. Nalan Rongruo was his most beloved son. How could he be gone now when he was only thirty years old?

He really hates the feeling of seeing a younger person die before an older one.

"Master, the eldest prince has brought the fourth prince to pay his respects to you."

Mingzhu was shocked. He knew that the eldest prince was coming. Concubine Hui sent someone to tell him, but why was the fourth prince coming too?

"Go down, I'll go take a look."

"yes."

"This old minister has met the eldest prince and the fourth prince."

"From now on, great uncle, I feel my condolences."

"Master Mingzhu, I accept your condolences."

After hearing this condolence, Mingzhu passed away again. His most outstanding and beloved son was gone, and he was really sad.

When Yinzhen returned to the palace, he was also in a heavy mood.

The Empress Dowager was in poor health. A few years ago, he was young and ignorant and didn't care about the Empress Dowager's health at all.

Although he looks better now, he always feels that the Empress Dowager will leave suddenly. He is afraid that the Empress Dowager will really abandon him and his sister.

"What's wrong? You were fine when you left, why are you so listless when you come back?"

"Mother, I'm scared."

Mu Sili thought he was afraid of separation from his loved ones, so she kept comforting him.

It happened that Galudai came over with his little followers Yinzhen and Yin?, and was very worried when he saw that he looked in low spirits.

"Fourth brother, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong? Empress Dowager, please help Fourth brother."

Yinzhen regained his spirits when he saw Galudai. Hearing how worried she was about him, he quickly put aside his worries and went to comfort her.

"Sister, Fourth Brother is fine, don't worry. He is just tired from leaving the palace with Big Brother this morning. He will be fine tomorrow.

But why did Ninth Brother and Tenth Brother come back with you? Are Gui’s Mother and Yi’s Mother also here?”

"No, I handed the power of the palace to them. They don't have time to take care of Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi, so I sent them here to help look after them.

If nothing unexpected happens, they will live with you for the next few days. Xiao Si, you are the older brother, so you must take good care of your younger brothers."

Yinzhen was a little resistant. If he was asked to take care of his sister, he would be happy to do so, but he really didn't want to take care of these two!

All he does all day is try to steal his sister's attention, but his sister protects them, leaving him feeling depressed and at a loss as to whether to hit her or scold her.

"You only have experience in teaching your younger sister, but not your younger brother.

Why don't you personally teach Little Nine and Little Ten? If the Empress Dowager gives birth to a prince, you'll have the experience to teach him for her. Isn't that right?"

Yinzhen's eyes lit up and he agreed without hesitation.

As Mu Sili said, Galudai is a princess after all, and the way of teaching her is different from that of teaching the princes.

After he teaches Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi, he will be able to teach them better and more accurately after the little brother in Mu Sili's belly comes out.

"Okay, when my son finishes washing up, he'll come over and teach his ninth and tenth brothers the Three Character Classic. In two days, I'll teach them the Thousand Character Classic."

"Okay, you're the master, so it's up to you to decide."

Yinzhen left happily, and Yinlu and Yinyang were stunned.

"Imperial Mother, I won't learn."

"Empress Mother, Xiao Shi doesn't want to learn either. It's tiring!"

They often came to the gate of Chengqian Palace, and they all knew how serious Yinzhen was about studying.

They are both still young, so we can talk about their studies in two years.

Moreover, Eighth Sister had said that a man's virtue lies in his lack of talent. The two of them should strictly follow Eighth Sister's teachings and not go against her wishes.

So when Yinzhen was ready to come over to enlighten them, what he saw were the two little ones standing behind Galudai, one on the left and one on the right.

"Oh, Garudai is a princess. The old ancestor, the emperor's father, the emperor's mother, and the grandfather all dote on her and protect her. Studying is not important to her.

As long as she can understand things, we will protect her no matter when and where.

And the most important reason is that she is very smart. She can understand things quickly and even apply what she has learned to other situations. Learning is not difficult for her.

But you two are different. You are stupid to begin with, and if you don’t study hard, your sister will despise you in two years.”

Dislike? How can this be? Isn't it just learning? I can do it!

"Fourth brother, learn, learn now."

Yinzhen took them to the study with satisfaction. The Empress Dowager said that Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi would achieve extraordinary things in the future, so they had to seize the opportunity. If they were not bullied now, there would be no chance in the future!

Garudai looked at the backs of the three people leaving and was a little puzzled. Could he be fooled so easily by his fourth brother?

After coaxing Garudai to sleep, Mu Sili came to the main hall of Chengqian Palace. Lian Yi had just said that she had something to report to her, but because the child was there, she didn't let her say it.

After Lian Yi told her about the Yonghe Palace, she didn't know whether she should say something or not.

I thought it would take some time to bring down Concubine De, but I didn't expect that she would destroy herself!
